Offered is a pair of handmade, signed Amy Hess sculptural stainless-steel candleholders, dating to the 1990s.

Material: Brushed stainless steelPeriod: 1990sOrigin: United StatesQuantity: Pair of 2Style: MCM / Modernist / EclecticDimensions: Approximately 7" tall x 3 1/8" wide eachSignature: Signed Amy Hess on the undersideBases: Small protective feet on the underside help prevent scratching furniture surfacesJudaica / Shabbat:
These candleholders could be used as Judaica Shabbat/Sabbath candleholders, as the pair provides two candleholders traditionally used for Shabbat.
Condition:
Very good vintage condition with normal signs of age and use. One of the candleholders has a small amount of movement in the four sculptural figures; the figures move back and forth slightly. This appears to be related to the construction of the piece, but I am noting it for full disclosure. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they are considered part of the description.
A distinctive pair of handmade sculptural candleholders by Amy Hess, suitable for an MCM, modernist, eclectic, or Judaica-inspired setting.
